Eight book adaptations that won 2013 Golden Globe awards

Book adaptations did very well at this year's Golden Globe awards. One winner on a list assembled by Ben Frederick at the Christian Science Monitor:

Silver Linings Playbook

Based on the novel of the same name by Matthew Quick, "Silver Linings Playbook" follows a former mental patient as he tries to win back his estranged wife. Don't worry, it's a lot sweeter than it sounds. Jennifer Lawrence won Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture – Comedy or Musical.
